District

Student

Achievement

For All Description: We will continue to implement the six components of the Master Plan for English Learners (MPEL).

Identification, Assessment, and Program Placement– Staff determines EL student placement by reviewing the following; Home

Language Survey (HLS), CEDLT score, District curriculum embedded placement essay (Inside/Edge placement test at secondary), state

approved achievement test, teacher recommendation, and parent input. Placement changes are determined by several indicators of progress

toward English fluency, including: a change in student's CELDT level, a next level score on an on-demand writing prompt, and (at

secondary) achieving a mastery-level score on an end-of-level test.

Instructional Programs– Elementary level programs are: English Language Development (ELD), Structured English Immersion (SEI),

Transitional Bilingual Education (TBE), and Dual Language Immersion (DLI) classrooms. Secondary Level programs are: SEI Sheltered

Content Classes and Secondary English Language Development (ELD). The instructional focus, aligned to CA ELD Standards, emphasizes

research-based strategies. Inside (MS) and Edge (HS) are the programs used in secondary schools. The focus is on rigorous daily

instruction, Integrated & Designated Instruction language development, Saturday EL Enrichment, and After School tutoring. In addition,

our Newcomer hubs at Helms Middle and Richmond High Schools will continue to support students enrolled fewer than 12 months.

Monitoring of Student Progress and Reclassification–English Learners are assessed annually with state-mandated and District-adopted

assessments to determine the student’s language proficiency level, growth in English language development, and academic performance.

The following assessments are used to identify students’ progress and/or areas of need: CELDT, ELD Benchmarks, District identified ELD

Placement Tests, Pathway to Reclassification and Seal of Bi-literacy.

Staffing and Professional Development– WCCUSD EL services are provided by CLAD & BCLAD certified teachers & administrators,

EL Coaches, content & language development EL Consultants, Bilingual Grad Tutors, and a Project Assistant.

Professional development is provided in various areas ranging from Elementary Integrated and Designated ELD, CA ELA/ELD Standards,

content embedded Specially Designed Academic Instruction (SADIE) and ELD for Secondary, with strategies to support

newcomers/immigrant students in all trainings. Student performance data is also used to determine PD offered to staff. Other supports

included ELD Coaching and support, an ELD Train–the-Trainer model to build capacity, targeted EL writing strategies, online ELD

Benchmarks and online Report Card workshops. Teachers, staff and administrators attend conferences and seminars on the CA ELA/ELD

Standards, Long Term English Learners (LTELs), ELs with Disabilities, etc. through the SCCOE Learning Circle Network, CCCOE,

CABE, etc.

Parent and Community Involvement– The EL K-12 staff and the Community Engagement office provide district and school site

presentations and professional development on EL students programs, EL student language proficiency levels, academic performance, and

technical assistance on instructional program decision-making to parents (i.e., ELAC, MDAC, MPEL Advisory, etc.).

Evaluation and Accountability– We provide teacher and administrator support to access online tools to monitor EL student performance

data through: Illuminate, CELDT scores, ELD Benchmarks and EL writing assessments, Report Cards, IDRL (K-1), STAR Reading

Assessment (in Spanish), ELA Benchmarks (in Spanish) and ELA Writing Benchmarks (in Spanish).

Recommendation:

Provide additional teaching staff for instructional program to keep class sizes in TBE small with no combination

grades and provide a hub for the program at Bayview.

Achievement

For All

Description:

Read 180/System 44 is the secondary reading intervention program for the district. This program is a

comprehensive, research-based intervention that uses a blended learning model.

Classes are available to mainstream, special education (RSP, NSH, and SH), and EL students and are

run at reduced class size with a maximum of 24 students in a mainstream push-in class. The program

was updated and expanded starting in 14-15 as a required component of the middle school Project Read

grant. Formal mid-year and end-of-year data reviews are completed by Scholastic/Houghton Mifflin

Harcourt.

Teachers participate in ongoing professional development with peer observation and goal planning,

known as “cadre days”.

Recommendation:

Increase the number of classes offered so that the program can be fully implemented at all middle and

high schools. This program was not broken out before, but has been offered. The District is creating a

new program number for it so it can be tracked separately.

future careers.

In addition to the skills developed for specific fields, each class helps students develop a résumé, review

effective interviewing techniques and identify sources of employment.

If students are uncertain about their college major or career choice, CTE/ROP provides an opportunity

to explore a career field. Students use the skills they develop in CTE/ROP to gain higher paying part-

time work to help pay for college expenses.

Internships and hands-on experience provide students the opportunity to “try-out” career choices before

investing time and money in college or post-secondary training.

Funding is used to provide: teachers, training, supplies, materials, and equipment that

supplement/support the specific program needs of the class, i.e. tools for the auto class, small MAC lab

for the digital art design class.
